Southland Season Finale Spoilers/Speculation?

[missmara13]

Behind the cut are spoilers... or possible spoilers... mostly a random idea in my head...



Maybe I missed something key that makes it clear one way or another, but...

Is it just me or... did anyone else get the vibe that Cooper's 'friend' might actually be more like 'boyfriend' or 'partner'? Between the bickering at the beginning of the ep, and then at the end with the stealing of the beer and the elbow on Cooper's shoulder and the way Cooper looked at him?

Maybe I'm seeing Slash because, ironically, I was uploading a new Icon to use for my rare slash fics pretty much right during that scene... I would have used that icon for this post, but... lol... seemed to close to spoiler-y... maybe... lol

Maybe I'm just crazy, but... I got a vibe there...


Anyway, I also added a TON of new icons, all from my various Icon Prompt Tables I made myself... including FINALLY having several Apocalypse icons, a slash icon, a couple of generic couple icons, and a couple others I'm sure will come in handy... and I STILL have 50 open icon spots... lol

Well, Cooper is gay so that may well be his boyfriend. I'm sure that we will find out more in the fall.

See... that's the problem with me being on the computer whiel watching tv half the time... I miss the little details like the fact that Cooper was in frickin' gay bar last week... lol... I read you comment and went "Wait... that's pretty matter of fact that he IS gay... did I totally miss something?" and I went looking around on imdb's boards for the show and sure enough... ::headdesk:: lol... now I feel sorta stupid... lol

Well, there was also this article before the show premiered: http://www.afterelton.com/TV/2009/3/southlandsgaycharacter

It has been pretty vague so far on the actual show.

Ah! Now I don't feel so oblivious, because I hadn't seen that article... usually I go crazy looking for any ahnd all info I can on new shows I'm interested in before they premiere, and this time... I knew I was watching so I didn't bother... lol

At the start I figured there was something more than just the delivery guy. At the end, definitely more of a boyfriend/partner - just the ease and closesness the two had with each other, including stealing the beer. But I'm wondering if it's a relatively new relationship or older one.

Oh darlin'---you are woefully unspoiled, aren't you? You were def meant to get those vibes. Cooper is without a doubt gay.

ETA - and I see zbyszko already informed you.

I don't know why I didn't bother looking up articles ahead of time, probably because I didn't need anything additional to get me interested in watching... lol... usually I ADORE spoilers and hutn out everything I can get... ::shrugs:: lol

To your credit, if you knew nothing about the characters but what you see in the episodes, it is very, very subtle. I kept waiting for the big reveal, b/c BMcK said his character didn't know, at least up until the finale. I think some of the looks he was giving his partner lead us to believe Sherman at least suspects something.
